This is part of a separate multi-year list by release date of international (now including the USA, which was once listed separately) promo and commercially-released stereo 7" and 12" singles and EPs for 1974-76 that do not qualify for my Searching For A Gem list because they contain only performances which are available on officially released Dylan albums. Nevertheless, their interest value or scarcity means they're worth listing here - as far as I know many are not included on any other Internet site. Special thanks to Hans Seegers for many of these items! Stereo promo versions of commercially released singles that were formerly listed in the Promotional Items sections of the yearly pages are now listed here. I would also like to include cassette singles here, but I don't have any, and none have been notified to me so far.
This page is still incomplete. If you have any entries to add to the list or additions/corrections to
existing entries, please let me know!
Please note I cannot value your Dylan rarities -
see the Mission page for reasons why. Contact the
dealers on my Trading page for assistance!

Bob Dylan/The Band - "On A Night Like This"/"You Angel You" - 7"
commercial single, Asylum AS 13 005 (NL/France/West Germany/Italy); Asylum AS 11
033 (Canada); Asylum AS-11033 (Australia), Asylum AS 11 033 (New Zealand),
1974:
These two songs were the regular album versions from Planet Waves. For
the equivalent US 7" single, Asylum AS 11033, see above. The Dutch single was released in two different sleeves,
one with photo, one without. Each sleeve was the same on both sides.
For the Spanish single, Asylum/Hispavox 45-1042, see below. The Canadian and New Zealand singles did not have picture sleeves. For pictures of the standard sleeves used for these releases, see 7" Single Sleeves. The Canadian single also occurs with two apparent A-sides, this is a labelling error - the record actually plays the B-side correctly.

![]() Island WIP 6188 (UK) promo single - A-side scan by Hans Seegers |
These two songs were the regular album versions from Planet Waves. This UK Island single was unique in having Forever Young (the fast version from Planet Waves) as the B-side. There was no picture sleeve, but the single was housed in an attractive blue and white Island UK generic sleeve. The only difference in the promo single is that the A-side label has a big "A" on the right-hand side.

![]() CBS 201751 (UK, stereo) - A-side scan by Hans Seegers (first copy) |
This single was originally released with the same catalogue
number in Mar 1965 in mono, see Mono 7" Singles & EPs 1965. It
was re-released in 1974, still in mono. This version has "STEREO" printed on the
label. I don't have a definite date for this single, but Hans Seegers says
this style of label without an "LC" capsule was used up to 1979,
so that would place it between 1975 and 1979. Two copies with holes punched through the labels are also illustrated. The original 1965 and the 1974 mono singles are shown for comparison. Thanks to Hans Seegers for information and scans. |

The West German promo single comes in the "CBS-Blitzinformation" sleeve with
white labels. There is a Jun 1975 variant of this promo single with the same
catalogue number with a radio edit of Tangled Up In Blue, see
1975. The front sleeves of the West German and Dutch singles were identical, and the commercial singles used the new style orange/yellow CBS labels. The New Zealand single didn't have a picture sleeve and used the old style solid orange CBS labels.

and sell for very high prices. This EP contains two rarities, Part I and Part II of Hurricane, so full details can be found in 1975-76 Hurricane Singles.. Thanks to Hans Seegers for information and scan. |

![]() CBS 3945 (UK) - front scan by Hans Seegers |
This single has the regular album tracks in stereo. Only the first release came with the picture sleeve shown - later releases had either generic "Hall Of Fame" sleeves or generic CBS sleeves. For a 1973 US stereo mono single with these tracks and for locations of other "Hall Of Fame" singles: those containing rarities, those in mono, and those in stereo, see "Hall Of Fame". The copy owned by Kenneth Robson has catalogue number "S CBS 3945" and comes in a generic CBS sleeve. It has orange/yellow labels in the CBS "Hall Of Fame Hits" series. The matrix number of the A-side is "CBS S 3945 A1", but it also has "CBS 4434 A" which is the catalogue number of the original mono single backed by Peggy Day (see Mono Singles & EPs 1969). This Hall Of Fame single was also released again in the UK with the new catalogue number of CBS 7071 in 1979 as part of the "Golden Decade" series - scans of picture sleeve/labels required! It was then re-released in 1984 as CBS A 4595 as part of the CBS "Back Tracks" series with unique black labels. For pictures of the "Back Tracks" sleeve, see 7" Single Sleeves. Thanks to Hans Seegers and Kenneth Robson for information and scans. |

The Spanish single shown translated Oh, Sister as "Oh, Hermana" on the label. Nol Grint has a copy of this in a generic CBS Spain orange/white patterned sleeve printed in Madrid in 1976 with text "El Sonido de los 70s" - however, this sleeve comes from earlier in the 1970s and does not belong with the single, see 7" Single Sleeves. I believe the UK single did not have a picture sleeve, scans required of sleeves and labels of other singles. Thanks to Francisco Lima for information about the Portuguese release, CBS 4113 - scans required. The Yugoslavian single was released by Suzy Records of Zagreb under licence from CBS, and occurs in two sleeve and label variants. The front sleeve is the same for all variants. The second sleeve variant has "'OFSET STAMPA BEOGRAD" on the botton right corner of the rear sleeve. The first label variant has "ST 45 STEREO STRANA 1/2" on the left on three lines, the second has "ST 45 STEREO" on the right on two lines in smaller text with "STRANA 1/2" also on the right below "USD-376". See below. The Australian single came without a picture sleeve and has 1970s style orange/yellow labels. For details of a 1976 US promo 7" single with a mono version of Mozambique, see Mono 7" Singles & EPs 1970-76. Thanks to Raoul Verolleman, David Burgess, Nol Grint and Kenneth Robson for information, and to Hans Seegers, Sam C. Visser and Ronald Born for the scans. |
